I recently went to Dennis to get Guided Tissue Regeneration surgery on 3 of my teeth.The results are amazing! I now have healthy gums again after the skillful work of Dennis and his team. They make you feel at ease with their light and easy manner whilst being highly professional. Everything is explained in simple understandable terms. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
Karen Fry
I have never liked going to the dentist, in fact I’d rather give birth but I felt so comfortable going to Dennis.He and Karin were very professional with a great sense of humour and make you feel at ease. I had been mucked around in trying to get a replacement partial plate, until I let my fingers do the walking and referred to the yellow pages, I found the Rescue Dentist, it was explained right at the start what to expect and there was never any problem everything went really well and I am more than happy. Erin is fantastic out front and makes sure everything runs smoothly, great team to work with and highly recommend them
Juliana Giraldo
Dr. Dennis Shepherd rescued me from severe gum disease in Jan. My gums were sore, swollen and bleeding and I had already been to see a hygienist, who cleaned them, but not much changed. Dennis preformed an amazing one hour gum treatment on me, which made my gums feel 100% better within 3 days. Three months later I'm still gum-disease-free and very grateful. I can highly recommend Dennis and his team. They were wonderful.
Rangimarie Harding
Dennis has rescued me on a number of occasions over the years and I can confidently say that he is a true master of his craft. Extremely skilled and so lovely to deal with, as is the whole team at Rescue Dentist. They really do live up to their name.
